Notes: These are taken from his green photo book. Hugh went to Berkeley High School and then graduated from UCAL Berkeley. He played water polo. His team mates called him "rabbit." He swam for the Olympic Club. Fancy diving and 220 were events he won. He at UC Berkeley in 1918(?). The Olympic Club had an amateur team. Feb. 7 a newspaper article was written by Ernest M. Smith stating the following: "There are a number of men, sucha as the diminutive Hughie Christenson who are playing bang-up water polo." and on Feb 22 "Olympic Club team beat Hawaiian Outriggers. The visitors easily outclassed the Outriggers, the shooting and relaying of Christenson featuring fine goals for the O." Picture of him with team in 1926 where he won 2nd play at a National event.
